Book Synopsis Veronique by : Victoria Christopher Murray
Download or read book Veronique written by Victoria Christopher Murray and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-03-17 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of The Personal Librarian comes the third in the The Divas series following the stories of four fifteen-year-old girls who form their own singing group. Veronique wants to be a star just as much as her fellow Divas do, but there's more to it than just fame for her. Unlike her middle-class friends at Holy Cross Prep, Veronique is there on scholarship, and if she wins a recording contract, she can move her mother and brothers out of their crummy apartment. But Veronique has another dream that's hers alone. She longs to meet her dad, who disappeared to New York when she was just a baby. Could going to the Big A with the other Divas be Veronique's big chance to find him? Veronique knows she'll have to do some legwork on her own, though, so she turns to the internet for help. While it seems like a miracle when she gets a response, her friends aren't so sure. Is Veronique putting herself in danger, just when the Divas are on the brink of really making it big? And will her faith and her friends be enough to keep her safe?

Edited by two prominent advocates of socially responsible design, this innovative reference responds to the tough questions today's designers continue to ask themselves, such as: How can a designer affect social or political change? Can design become more than just a service to clients? At what point does a designer have to take responsibility for the client's actions? When should a designer take a stand? Readers will find dozens of captivating insights and opinions on such important issues as reality branding, game design and school violence, advertising and exploitation, design as an environmental driving force, and much more. This candid guide encourages designers to carefully research their clients; become alert about corporate, political, and social developments; and design responsible products. Citizen Designer, Second Edition, includes insights on such contemporary topics as advertising of harmful products, branding to minors, and violence and game design. Readers are presented with an enticing mix of opinions in an appealing format that juxtaposes essays, interviews, and countless illustrations of "design citizenship."
Book Synopsis In the Company of Men by : Véronique Tadjo
Download or read book In the Company of Men written by Véronique Tadjo and published by Other Press, LLC. This book was released on 2021-02-23 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WINNER OF THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE Harper’s Bazaar: Best Book of the Year Boston Globe: Best Book of the Year Ms. Magazine: Best Feminist Book of the Year Words Without Borders: Best Translated Book of the Year Drawing on real accounts of the Ebola outbreak that devastated West Africa, this poignant, timely fable reflects on both the strength and the fragility of life and humanity’s place in the world. Two boys venture from their village to hunt in a nearby forest, where they shoot down bats with glee, and cook their prey over an open fire. Within a month, they are dead, bodies ravaged by an insidious disease that neither the local healer’s potions nor the medical team’s treatments could cure. Compounding the family’s grief, experts warn against touching the sick. But this caution comes too late: the virus spreads rapidly, and the boys’ father is barely able to send his eldest daughter away for a chance at survival. In a series of moving snapshots, Véronique Tadjo illustrates the terrible extent of the Ebola epidemic, through the eyes of those affected in myriad ways: the doctor who tirelessly treats patients day after day in a sweltering tent, protected from the virus only by a plastic suit; the student who volunteers to work as a gravedigger while universities are closed, helping the teams overwhelmed by the sheer number of bodies; the grandmother who agrees to take in an orphaned boy cast out of his village for fear of infection. And watching over them all is the ancient and wise Baobab tree, mourning the dire state of the earth yet providing a sense of hope for the future. Acutely relevant to our times in light of the coronavirus pandemic, In the Company of Men explores critical questions about how we cope with a global crisis and how we can combat fear and prejudice.

Book Synopsis Gertrude et Veronique by : AndrŽ Theuriet
Download or read book Gertrude et Veronique written by AndrŽ Theuriet and published by Library of Alexandria. This book was released on 1888 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La journŽe tirait ˆ sa finÑune pluvieuse journŽe de fŽvrierÑet bien que le ciel se fžt Žclairci, la lumi�re pŽnŽtrait dŽjˆ avec peine ˆ travers les carreaux verd‰tres de la pi�ce o� se rŽunissait chaque soir la famille de MaupriŽ. Les fen�tres donnaient sur l'unique rue du village; en soulevant le rideau, on pouvait apercevoir la route dŽtrempŽe par la pluie, la rue tournante, les maisons basses aux toits moussus, l'abside de la vieille Žglise de Lachalade, et dans le fond, la for�t d'Argonne voilŽe d'une brume violette. Pr�s de l'une des croisŽes, la veuve de David de MaupriŽ se tenait droite dans son fauteuil et raide dans ses v�tements noirs; sa figure affilŽe et pointue se profilait sur la mousseline du rideau, et l'on voyait ses mains s�ches agiter mŽcaniquement les aiguilles. Sa fille a”nŽe, Honorine, ŽlancŽe et maigre, surveillait devant la cheminŽe la cuisson d'un opiat pour le teint; elle devait avoir passŽ la trentaine; la flamme du brasier Žclairait ˆ demi son visage couperosŽ et ses yeux noirs encore beaux sous leurs paupi�res dŽjˆ fatiguŽes. Un gar�on de vingt-trois ans, nommŽ Xavier, Žtait assis ˆ une table ronde devant un dessin qu'il terminait rapidement. Pr�s de lui, dans l'embrasure de la seconde fen�tre, sa sÏur cadette, Reine, les coudes sur les genoux et les mains enfoncŽes dans ses Žpais cheveux bruns, profitait des derni�res heures du jour pour dŽvorer un roman qui absorbait toute son attention. L'ombre envahissait de plus en plus la salle, et les meubles qui la garnissaient disparaissaient noyŽs dans l'obscuritŽ. Parfois seulement le feu se ranimait, un jet de flamme lan�ait �ˆ et lˆ de lŽg�res touches lumineuses, et on distinguait un coin de miroir, un panneau de tapisserie, un portrait enfumŽ dans son cadre terni, une console ventrue ˆ poignŽes de cuivre, un r‰telier d'armes de chasseÉ Puis la flamme s'Žvanouissait et tout se replongeait dans l'ombre, ˆ l'exception des silhouettes immobiles pr�s des fen�tres.

This book is about Veronique Billat's 30 years of research, life studies, and practical experience. This research takes place in real life and extreme racing situations; it does not take place on treadmills, rather in marathon races and the high mountains. It's about adapting new technologies to the needs of training and understanding the possibilities for the improvement of human energy.

It is no longer necessary to train by running long distances in preparation for specific types of running races. Performance is not just about a result, but rather a road to true happiness. We invite you to discover this new way of running as it is a realistic minimalist-based training using your running mind-body feelings sensations and your lifestyle. The practice of marathon running is, above all, a serious endeavor for anyone 10 to 100 years old, that will let you dream immense possibilities.ReviewsI thought I knew everything I needed to know about marathon pacing before I read The Science of the Marathon.

I have found her work to be useful for boosting the performances of runners not only in the marathon, but all the way down to the 800-any distance at which aerobic capability matters. My runners swear by it. Richard A. Lovett, Coach, Team Red Lizard, Portland Oregon and Co-author of Alberto Salazar's Guide to Road Racing"Drs. Billat and Edwards did an excellent job writing this book. Dr. Edwards has been a huge help getting Brenda back to top running form. You don't have to be an elite runner to train like one.
